Abstract: This document deals with work done by the students on analyzing the characteristics of different types of motor used in an hybrid electric vehicle, and to find out the most efficient motor for the same. Characteristics such as losses, efficiency, cost etc. are taken into consideration and compared, calculated to find out the efficiency of different types of motors under different conditions. The performance of motors under two major conditions is taken into account. Two different types of motors are used for the purpose and a better one is found out. All this is done by using MATLAB software and simulation of the motors are carried out and their torque is calculated using respective formulas, as a result the efficiency calculation is also carried out using suitable formulae. Two main types of motors such as BLDC and PMSM are used for the purpose, they are simulated on different conditions i.e once on a highway and another on a city road, their efficiency is calculated is on the same basis.
Keywords: Electric Motors, Efficiency Calculation, Comparison, Electric Vehicle.
